Working "hard," or the perception of working hard, doesn't really mean anything. Sweating, vomiting, and breathing hard could be a good workout or a tropical disease kicking in.-Dan John
you ask around lo, tpy safra - 12-1..
see one guy in navy singlet doing rolling, walking out see him on the floor peng san.

i'm gonna explain why jenlis is much bigger than me in size now.
As you have already known that muscle fiber make up, CNS efficiency, tendon strength are some of the factors that play a role in determining how strong a person is.
Fiber make up can be changed in a couple of months by the right training. While doing so, CNS itself will learn to recruit more MUs and control different muscle groups efficiently. Once the trainee becomes fast twitch dominant from training, his slow twitch muscle fibers also will fire faster than bfore as they are no longer Type I, slow twitch.
At the same time, there will be weakening of inhibitory signals, while exitory signals become stronger. Force transmission from muscles to muscles, muscles to adjacent non muscle structures, muscles to tendons, tendons to bones will be improved.
A case in point is Frank Yang. He is obviously fast twitch dominant who possesses all the above abilities.
He not only does maximal strength training but explosive strength training. The olympic lifts he performs actually have the power that far exceeds that of deadlifts or squats. The power output of such lifts can be up to 12 times that of deadlifts or squats.
But, I have not answered your question actually.
Generally, Westerners are taller, hence, have not only bigger muscle fiber * as in larger surface area of contractile proteins * and/or larger number of muscle fibers but the fibers are also longer in length.
As you probably have already known, muscle fiber cross section area, the number of muscle fibers and the length of the muscle fibers are also the factors that determine one's strength.
Think of a number of guys pulling a rope/ropes that is/are tied to a lory.
If there is one rope, only ten guys can hold onto it and pull the lory. And If there are more ropes, say 3, then, a total of 30 guys can grab them and do so.
You can thinking of larger cross section as big size guys, whereas small cross section area as small size guys. Normally, who would pull the lory better?
Think of larger number of muscle fibers as more ropes. A group of 10 guys pulling the lory using a rope and three groups of ten guys pulling it, which is better ?
And, when you have greater muscle fiber length, you have longer rope/ropes, meaning that more than ten guys for each rope. So, this also can do a great contribution to one's strength.
And last but not least, bcos of bigger tendons, bones and structures, there is better force transmissions and less/weaker inhibitory signals.
I hope you can somehow see the answer now.

i have 1 better answer though.
his frame is bigger.
he eats more.
he trains heavier.
knn, 1 word frame can determine a lot of things liao. crappyyyyyyy
